In this case it's more of an embarrassing hack, as I just needed a way
to make git run "kcov outdir git-pull.sh" whenever git pull is called
since kcov will not instrument any spawned subprocesses. I modified
execv_dashed_external() in git.c to prepend kcov to argv (diff
probably munged by gmail):

I'm guessing a real solution is to follow what the test suite does for
the --valgrind option, though I haven't looked into it in detail.
